This case report demostrates an unusual occurence of orbital metastasis along with liver metastasis 5 years following enucleation for ciliochoroidal melanoma with no extraocular extension. It exemplifies that metastasis of the tumour can occur in the ipsilateral orbit after enucleation. Importance of close clinical follow-up after enucleation for choroidal melanoma, careful socket examination, and regular systemic metastatic workup is demonstrated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of uveal melanoma with ipsilateral orbital metastasis.
本病例报告展示了一例睫状体脉络膜黑色素瘤 5 年后发生的罕见眼眶转移和肝转移,此前该肿瘤已行眼球摘除术且无眼外蔓延。这表明肿瘤在眼球摘除术后可向同侧眼眶转移。本病例强调了眼球摘除术后密切的临床随访、仔细的眼眶检查和定期的全身转移检查的重要性。据我们所知,这是首例报道的眼内黑色素瘤伴同侧眼眶转移病例。
